And here we are onto our first night race of the year. I'm headed over to a friend's tonight to watch this race on a gigantic projector in room with theater quality audio. Pretty damn excited. Hopefully it's not a snoozer like it has been in the past.

I have absolutely no read on who is going to win this thing. I wanted to take either Bowyer or Kahne, but neither car has looked like it has anything. Just going to play some matchups.

1u Mears +115 vs. Labonte - I continue to love this bet, and it is now currently at Mears -130. Got in on this immediately.

(to win) 1u Logano -115 vs. Vickers - Not as thrilled about this move as when I initially made it, but I still think it's going to work out. Oddsmakers have moved the line to -135 Logano, but practice and qualifying haven't really showed me that's where it should go.

(to win) 1u Stewart -115 vs. Vickers - More of a fade on Vickers than an endorsement of Stewart. I think Stewart finishes 12-15 and Vickers 15-20.

(to win) 2u Keselowski -105 vs. Kahne - Kes seems to be good, not great. Kahne seems to be a wildcard. I'll take the defending series champ in this position.

James Beuscher +675 Tailing a lot of this forum on this play for 1u.

Kimi Raikkonen +625 I wanted a rooting interest in this race. It appears I got in on this early enough. 1u

Thanks man. I was completely wrong about Vickers, and he was a whole lot better than I thought he was going to be. I got really lucky the #2 and #22 came on at the end, or this would have been a bad week.
